The Phantom of the Opera (French: Le Fantôme de l'Opéra) is a novel by French writer Gaston Leroux. It was first published as a serialisation in Le Gaulois from September 23, 1909 to January 8, 1910. It was published in volume form in April 1910 by Pierre Lafitte.[1] The novel is partly inspired by historical events at the Paris Opera during the nineteenth century and an apocryphal tale concerning the use of a former ballet pupil's skeleton in one of the Paris Opera's productions.[2] Nowadays, it is overshadowed by the success of its various stage and film adaptations. The most notable of these are the 1925 film depiction featuring Lon Chaney, Sr and Andrew Lloyd Webber's 1986 musical.
Plot summary[edit]
Christine Daaé travels with her father, a famous fiddler, throughout Europe, and plays folk and religious music. When Christine was six years old, her mother died and her father was taken to rural France by a patron, Professor Valerius.
While Christine was a child, her father told her many stories about the "Angel of Music", who is the personification of musical inspiration. Christine meets and befriends the young Raoul, Viscount of Chagny. One of Christine and Raoul's favourite stories is one of Little Lotte, a girl who is visited by the Angel of Music and possesses a heavenly voice.
Christine now lives with "Mamma" Valerius, the elderly widow of her father's benefactor. She eventually is given a position in the chorus at the Paris Opera House (Palais Garnier). She begins hearing a beautiful, unearthly voice which sings to her and speaks to her. She believes this must be the Angel of Music and asks him if he is. The Voice agrees and offers to teach her "a little bit of heaven's music". The Voice, however, belongs to Erik, a physically deformed and mentally disturbed musical genius who was one of the architects who took part in the construction of the opera house. He is in love with Christine.
Christine triumphs at the gala on the night of the old managers' retirement. Her old childhood friend, Raoul, hears her sing and recalls his love for Christine. He then hears the "Angel of Music" speaking to Christine. Some time after the gala, the Paris Opera performs Faust, with the prima donna Carlotta playing the lead, against Erik's wishes. In response to a refused surrender of Box Five to the Opera Ghost, Carlotta loses her voice and the grand chandelier plummets into the audience.
After the accident, Erik kidnaps Christine, takes her to his home (the cellars) and reveals his true identity. He plans to keep her there for a few days, hoping she will come to love him. Christine begins to find herself attracted to her abductor. But she causes Erik to change his plans when she unmasks him and, to the horror of both, beholds his face, which according to the book, resembles the face of a rotting corpse. Erik goes into a frenzy, stating she probably thinks his face is another mask, and whilst digging her fingers in to show it was really his face he shouts, "I am Don Juan Triumphant!" before crawling away, crying. Fearing that she will leave him, he decides to keep her with him forever, but when Christine requests release after two weeks, he agrees on condition that she wear his ring and be faithful to him.
On the roof of the opera house, Christine tells Raoul that Erik abducted her. Raoul promises to take Christine away to a place where Erik can never find her. Raoul tells Christine he shall act on his promise the next day, to which Christine agrees. She, however, has pity for Erik and will not go until she has sung a song for him one last time. Christine then realises the ring has slipped off her finger and has fallen into the street somewhere. She begins to panic, but neither is aware that Erik has been listening to their conversation and that he has become extremely jealous.
The following night, Erik kidnaps Christine during a production of Faust and tries to force Christine to marry him. He states that if she refuses, he will use explosives (which he has planted in the cellars) to destroy the entire opera house. Christine refuses, until she realises that Erik learned of Raoul's attempt to rescue her and has trapped Raoul in a hot torture chamber (along with the Persian, an old acquaintance of Erik who was going to help Raoul). To save them and the people above, Christine agrees to marry Erik. Erik initially tries to drown Raoul, using the water which would have been used to douse the explosives. But Christine begs and offers to be his "living bride", promising him not to kill herself after becoming his bride, as she had both contemplated and attempted earlier in the novel. Erik eventually rescues Raoul from his torture chamber. When Erik is alone with Christine, he lifts his mask to kiss her on her forehead, and is given a kiss back. Erik reveals that he has never received a kiss (not even from his own mother) or has been allowed to give one and is overcome with emotion. He lets Christine go and tells her, "Go and marry the boy whenever you wish", explaining, "I know you love him." She leaves on the condition that when he dies she will come back and bury him.
Being an old acquaintance, the Persian is told these secrets by Erik, and upon his express request, the Persian advertises Erik's death in a newspaper about three weeks later. The cause of the death is revealed to be a broken heart, and as promised, Christine returns to bury Erik and gives him back the ring.

My old neighborhood in San Francisco used to have a fabulous Hungarian restaurant where I loved to go for pork stuffed cabbage rolls. The restaurant has since gone out of business, but my love for the dish remains.
Pork Stuffed Cabbage Rolls Recipe
- 2 lbs sauerkraut
- 1 large head green cabbage
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup finely chopped onions
- 1/4 tsp of finely chopped garlic
- 1 lb ground lean pork
- 1/4 cup rice, cooked in boiling salted water (yielding 3/4 cup cooked)
- 2 lightly beaten eggs
- 2 tbsp sweet Hungarian paprika
- 1/8 tsp marjoram
- 1 tsp salt
- freshly ground pepper
- 1 cup water mixed with 1 cup tomato puree
- 1 cup sour cream
1 Rinse the sauerkraut in cold water. If needed, soak in cold water 10-20 minutes to reduce sourness. Squeeze dry and set aside.
2 In a large saucepan, bring to a boil enough salted water to mostly cover the cabbage. Add the cabbage, reduce the heat to low and simmer 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the cabbage and let it drain while it cools enough to handle. Pull off 16 large unbroken leaves and lay them on paper towels to drain and cool further. If the inner leaves aren't cooked enough to bend easily, you can return them to the simmering water to cook a bit longer.
3 In a 10-inch skillet, saute the onions and garlic in olive oil, until the onions are lightly colored. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pork, rice, eggs, paprika, marjoram, the onion-garlic mixture, salt and a few grindings of black pepper. Mix well with a fork or wooden spoon.
4 Place 2 tablespoons of the stuffing in the center of one of the wilted cabbage leaves and, beginning with the thick end of the leaf, fold over the sides, then roll the whole leaf tightly, as you would a small bundle. Repeat with more leaves until all the stuffing has been used.
5 Spread the sauerkraut on the bottom of a 5-quart Dutch oven and arrange the cabbage rolls on top of it. Add the water mixed with the tomato puree. Bring the liquid to a boil, then cover the pan tightly and cook the stuffed cabbage over low heat for 1 hour.
6 Transfer the rolls from the Dutch oven to a warm plate. Stir the sour cream into the sauerkraut. Simmer another 5 minutes. Lift the sauerkraut onto a serving platter with a slotted spoon. Arrange the cabbage rolls on the sauerkraut and pour some of the sauce over them. Serve any remaining sauce in a sauceboat.

Suits Review: Daddy Issuesby Chandel Charles at .
"Zane vs. Zane," Bennett v. Litt, Zane v. Pearson, Zane v. Spector... this installment of Suits was one big battle royale between some of the hardest players this side of Manhattan - and man was it fun to watch!
First, Happy Birthday, Rachel!
We're sorry we couldn't get you a gift, but we are even more sorry that your birthday lunch with dear old dad came to such an abrupt end. I was fascinated by Rachel's relationship with her father. We haven't really seen any parents appear on this show other than over Skype (thanks, Louis), so it was quite something to have Mr. Zane live in living color and causing all kinds of trouble for Pearson/Hardman.
I could hear the collective scoff over Twitter at the slightest mention of Pearson/Zane. Dream on, sir!
Other than that, I enjoyed seeing Rachel come into her own a little bit more this episode. I've always thought highly of her, so it was interesting to take a step back and realize that perhaps she wasn't thinking the world of herself, and that was why she was unhappy and took the words her father hurled at their client as some direct call on her.
I'm glad she finally stood up for herself. I think it's long overdue, though I don't think there was every anyone in her path so far that she needed to stand up to.
That said, I'm pretty sure Harvey's decision to use Rachel in the larger plot of the case had everything to do with Robert's decision to recuse himself from the case and hand it over to Daniel Hardman. Mr. Zane came to play hardball, and it seems that no matter where our legal eagles turn these days, there's always something or someone waiting to pounce on them. They really can't catch a break to save their lives!
Speaking of someone else who couldn't catch a break: Louis Litt. While he expertly initiated his war with Katrina Bennett, he certainly didn't anticipate just how willing she was to match his performance. Their back and forth was as gold as Louis' $3,000 nail trimmers. Can we please get more?
I did like that there was a little bit of reconciliation that got to take place between most of the parties involved; most notably the hatchet definitely buried between Harvey, Donna and Louis. That mug shot display series was epic. I really want one of those to hang up in my room. No kidding!
Other highlights from this episode:
- Getting to see Harvey and Rachel interact, and see Rachel take his bagel.
- Discovering that Harvey has and requires designated "me time."
- Mike and Harvey playing office HORSE.
- Louis and the food processor.
- President Louis and his photo-shopped head on some of the greatest American Presidents.
- Louis admitting his respect for women such as Hillary Clinton and Gwen Stefani.
So, what do you think Hardman's imminent return will mean for our favorite firm?

Louis Litt and Katrina Bennett - best office conflict ever! They were hilarious. Loved the jail pics of Louis. He's definitely the bad guy you love to hate. Another fav, the conversation between Donna and Katrina and the jar of cookies --too funny.
Zane vs. Zane wasn't nearly as entertaining for me as Louis and Katrina. I'm sure with the return of Hartman next week, the episode will be explosive.
I LOVED this episode and the one before. Dialogue is still sharp, which is what I like the most is this show.
Katrina/Louis I WANT MORE !!! It was fun as hell. Same goes for Rachel/Harvey : she took his bagel, HILARIOUS !!!
Zane vs Zane was VERY interesting !!! honestly it was good to see that side of her for a change. Be proud girl !
IT'S BACK !!!! Louis pants tearing up, just out of this world lol. The mugshots, I WANT ONE !!!!! photoshopped presidents big LOL, but no thanks.
Hardman is back....There's gonna be blood ! And damn I wanna see it !
While Louis and Katrina were amusing it rubbed me the wrong way. I get why Harvey, Donna, Jessica, and Mike are the way they are with Lois. It's complicated. Some of them communicate a certain way there is a history, good natured teasing, filling respective roles, sibling like jesting with the nobody messes with my annoying brother but me...rooted in respect thing. Katrina is new to the game. Respect the pecking order. Hell despite everything even Mike has to respect it to some degree. So I kept thinking who the hell does she think she is? And have at least one person leave Louis alone. Still don't care for Rachel though her relationship with her father was interesting and it was nice seeing her interact with Harvey for a change. LOVED the Harvey/Mike scenes Harvey /Jessica scenes and Donna. All of them were so humorous.

if you complain about cicada restaurant, it's because you're just not a jaded hollywood rock star. it's cool. go here with friends to feel like you're filming an episode of hbo's entourage. c'est chic!
Cicada Restaurant, was wonderful... Everyone I was with enjoyed their meal. Also the coffe was to die for. I will definitely go back when I am in the area.
My girlfriend and I came here on Valentine's Day and had a wonderful time. The ambiance as we walked in was lovely as we stepped back in time. All the art deco and the trio playing as we were seated just set the mood very nicely. They seated us and gave us a sheet telling us the different movies/tv shows/commercials that were filmed her which was interesting. I totally was in the same room Brad Pitt was at one point ;)
The four course menu that night was very good too. We have eaten at some of the very best places back home and this lived up to what we were expecting.
My first course was the lobster tower. I'm not huge on lobster, but paired with the avocado it went down smooth. The only thing I didn't really get was the little chunks of grapefruit. I think it added a bit too much acidity but was still ok.
Next was the endive and camembert salad with pear, apple and candied walnuts. Some of these things I'm not big on alone (like the pear and endive), but the combo of them all together was so good. The candied walnuts just brought it all together.
I got the seared halibut with chestnut risotto with the mango and papaya salad for my third course. Highlight of my night! The fish was cooked perfectly and just melted in my mouth. The risotto was probably the best I've ever had and the salsa freshened everything up perfectly.
The apple tarte tatin with cinnamon whipped cream was a good close to the night, just a tasty comfort food kind of night cap.
Great experience overall and would love to come back, but maybe next time in a full tuxedo!
A great place for a meal, especially if you have a big group! A relaxed but still nice atmosphere and delicious food.
Great place for a drink with a date, a few friends, or even a small party. Nice atmosphere, something a little different than most places in the city. Drinks are reasonably priced.
Great outdoor dining space..It's much bigger than we expected and was quite busy. The Appetizers were really nice.
Cicada – Delicious food! Excellent service! will come back again!!
Art Deco Heaven & Great Food – Simply amazing. Words can not help here. Just make a reservation and go with your favorite person.
Good event spot.. – I went to my cousin's wedding at the cicada restaurant. It was a great event. This is a great place for a party or just dinner. The food is great and worth the price and the bar upstairs is great!
A fun evening in downtown Los Angeles Art Deco Treasure – I went to the Sunday night show at the Cicada Club to see Richard Halpern's Roaring Twenties Revue. First, the food. I recommend the scallop and risotto appetizer. It was a wonderful combination of flavors and textures. For the entree I enjoyed the lamp chops. Cooked just right -- juicy and and delicious.
Second, the entertainment. This night featured Halpern's 1920's era band with a fantastic dance number by special guest Chester Whitmore (one of the top tap dancers in the country). Later the Cicada Club's elevator boy Kid Watson performed a surprisingly good dance routine. Quite a few people were dressed in 1920's attire that added to the atmosphere. You really have to see this for yourself. Nothing like it. Great fun.

He'll be bringing with him the usual assortment of new & underground sounds from the West Coast heavy/psychedelic scene. Tune in Thursday, September 13th from 8-11 pm to have your ears & mind beautifully blown. http://www.facebook.com/PsychoacousticsRadioShow.on.WORT.FM?ref=ts From Fr. Angus– The following is a list of artists whose work I should have with me next week, with comments: Amon Duul II (venerable German prog) Acid Mothers Temple ('nuff said; saw them this year) Acid King (awesome SF psych/doom; seeing them on 9/21) Crippled Black Phoenix (post-prog UK band with new release that swept Europe this year; my friend Mark does synths and samples for them) Parson Sound (Swedish drone/psych pioneers from the late 60s that will BLOW YOUR MIND) Guardian Alien (new, deeply weird, ragalike freakout) Carlton Melton (SF instrumental psych, shimmery and heavy; seeing them on 9/29) Assemble Head in Sunburst Sound (SF psych) Doug Hilsinger/Caroleen Beatty (Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy/Eno cover…WORT has this, yes?) Eagle Twin (I'll have at least a track from their July 2012 release, The Feather Tipped the Serpent's Scale; sadly, missed their show last month) Earth (does WORT have either of their two newest releases, Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light I and/or II? I saw Earth here last year.) Hellbender (psych metal à la Hawkwind, new stuff) Hot Lunch (WORT should have gotten some Hot Lunch materials from their label, Who Can You Trust? I work with their drummer. Killer. I have some of their stuff if worse comes to worst.) Naam (yes, more prog/psych/doom, from Brooklyn…friends of mine, and they've sparked lots of phone calls when we've played them before; saw them here last year) Randy California (old solo nugget of his) Six Organs of Admittance (does WORT have their latest, Ascent? It's been sold out at Aquarius and Amoeba when I've checked…just released last month. Might see them here on 9/22.) Ufomammut (I have Opus Primum, released April 2012; Opus Alter will be released the day after I return to California, dammit! Saw them here on their first-ever US tour in 2009.) Worm Ouroboros (imagine Galadriel in an all-female symphonic black metal band…beautiful and heavy at the same time; saw them with Wolves in the Throne Room earlier this year.) The Lumerians ( going to be opening for Psychic TV when I see them in December) Some ….read article »

It was so great to see and/or meet many other community radio DJs, music promoters, label reps and artists at NonCommvention in Philadelphia last week! It's always revitalizing to connect with like-minded peers and brainstorm solutions to our shared issues, and just to socialize with others with whom we have a lot in common. This year was no exception, plus the highlights of getting to see live radio broadcast performances by Lee Fields, JD McPherson, Willie Nelson and JC Brooks & The Uptown Sound was wonderful. I've recommended JC Brooks as a possible headliner for the Willy Street Fair here in Madison this September, and since they've only got to jump up here from Chicago, hopefully that'll work out. It's no surprise that at #1 on our charts this week is Cheddar Revolution: Songs of Uprising, the Various Artists CD I produced of protest songs from Madison. Check out the page for free downloads, artwork, locations where CDs may be picked up [also free] and more at wisconsinprotestsongs.com. Most of the artists are from Wisconsin but NYC and Oakland, CA are also represented, as well as contributions from Wayne Kramer of the MC5 and Jon Langford of Mekons, Waco Bros. & more!! Please do take a moment now to listen to this timely, passionate music of many genres inspired by the Wisconsin Uprising, the "original occupation" — with Gov. Walker's recall scheduled for June 5, the next 2 weeks are crucial for getting the word out, and we're making a media push on select national levels. After that, who knows — it may become more of an historical document [hopefully] as it has been accepted into the Smithsonian Institutions' permanent collection! — or it may of necessity spawn further projects as the battle for America's hearts and minds continues. Sound dramatic? You bet it is–for many of us, this is the most important struggle of our lives, and for our lives. Thanks so much for any support you can give us; again, see the website at wisconsinprotestsongs.com for more info and music, and feel free to contact me with your ideas and feedback. If I'd have been able to play one song from it at the Noncommvention's Music Roundtable, where we review new indie music, it would've been by the German Art Students –"The Power And The Trust" http://youtu.be/fqXEp_6xmcQ More on what's being spun on WORT this week: Amadou et Mariam will be here this summer to kick off our festival season in fine style, and they top our World chart ….read article »

the senior member of the committee
· from the other aide of the aisle. The
Senator from Ma.s5achu.sett.s renders
most valuable service on our committee

Mr. SALTONSTALL. I appreciate
what the Senator has said. because what
I do I do under his guidance and with

to retain section 608 for the reasons that
the Senator has stated, we 11hould make
clear that we Included In the report some
very strong !G.nguage as to the notice that
the Congress should have. I should like
to quota one sentence.
Mr. STENNIS. I should be glad to
have the Senator read the !G.nguage In
the report to which he hM referred, foc
It Is pertinent to his remarks.
Mr. SALTONSTALL. The language
Is M follows:
The committee restates with emphulo Its
view that these changes ahould be scheduled
"nd announced ao f~half of my dlstlngulshed colleague
from Montana I Mr. METCALF] and
myself, because In January of this year
the newest Air Force base In the country
was closed. Since the House Pa.s5ed Ita
military construction bill, Senator METCALF
and I have received a number of
inquiries from Glasgow and vicinity urr-ln!!
our support of section 608 < b >. .
Would I be COITect.-and this 111 merely
for Pmphasis--that on the basis of the
explanation given by the distinguished
Senator from Mississippi [Mr. STENNIS],'
the acting chairman of the committee
and manager of the blll, even had sectlo.n
608Cbl been In the bill it would not have .
affected the closing order that had been.'

wlll the Senator yield on the same point? .
Mr. STENNIS. I yield to the Senator ,
from Ma.s5achusetts.
Mr. SAL TONST ALL. The lanlr\)age of

mcnt concerned may not clooe, substan- ·
tlally reduce. or consolldate any mllitary
camp, base. or station.
Mr. MANSFIELD. In the future.
Mr. SALTONSTALL. In the future. ·
It does not say "in U1e future," but obviously
the Interpretation Ia the future, 11

lng that the proposed action with respect to

Hou•e becau•e If carried out It would In t.be

lmpnlr the defenae of the Unlt.ed Stateo. '
It one takCI! those words Into account,
I would agree 100 percent with the !nterprctatlOn
of the acting chairman or

Injured foot puts Andrew Miller on 15-day DL - 0 Comments
ANAHEIM — Andrew Miller limped through the visiting clubhouse in a walking cast, stopping periodically to grimace.
X-rays on the reliever's left foot late Saturday night were inconclusive and he'll return to Boston for further tests with noted orthopedist Dr. George Theodore. But the Red Sox saw enough to know that Miller won't be pitching anytime soon, which is why they placed the left-hander on the 15-day disabled list yesterday and replaced him with right-hander Alfredo Aceves.

Morgantown, W.Va., Oct 26, 2013 – James Madison swimming and diving won 10 of the 20 women's events, including seven on Saturday as it claimed first place at the four-team West Virginia Invitational at the WVU Natatorium in Morgantown, W. Va., this weekend.
JMU scored 1,077.50 points to outrace Cincinnati, West Virginia and Villanova in the Invitational. Cincinnati claimed second with 882.50 points followed by West Virginia (747) and Villanova (724) in third and fourth, respectively.
Of the Dukes' seven victories on Saturday, three of them came on relays as they won the 200-yard medley relay, the 400-yard freestyle relay and the 400-yard medley relay to claim 120 points in those three events. Junior Susanne Gingher (Boalsburg, Pa./State College Area) swam all three of the relays for Madison as she teamed with senior Shannon Dubay (South Windsor, Conn./South Windsor), junior Sin Hye Won (Springfield, Va./West Springfield) and sophomore Kacy Edsall (Roanoke, Va./William Byrd) to win the 200 medley and Edsall, Won and junior Melissa Criscuolo (Point Pleasant, N.J./Point Pleasant) to win the 400 medley. The 200 team turned in a time of 1:47.42 to edge the team from West Virginia by 0.04 seconds while the 400 medley team touched the wall at 3:52.63 to outrace its nearest competitor by over two seconds.
The 400-yard freestyle team was made up of Gingher, senior Kelsey Holmgaard (Roanoke, Va./George Mason), and sophomores Carli Molano (Centreville, Va./Westfield) and Kristen Zielinski (Chesapeake, Va./Grassfield (Nova Southeastern)). The quartet teamed up to time the 10th-fastest time in school history at 3:29.83.
Individual event winners for Madison on Saturday included Holmgaard, Gingher and Won. Holmgaard claimed two individual event titles as she won both individual medley events, timing a 4:33.94 in the 400-yard IM and a 2:06.93 in the 200 IM to earn 40 points for her team.
Gingher glided through the water in a time of 23.91 to win the 50-yard freestyle.
Won finished first in the 100-yard breaststroke beating the field by over one and a half seconds as she touched the wall at 1:05.06. JMU also claimed third and fourth in the event as Dubay and sophomore Amanda Presgraves (Leesburg, Va./Tuscarora) earned points for Madison. Dubay placed third with a time of 1:07.16 with Presgraves right behind her at 1:07.42.
Other top finishers for the Dukes include Criscuolo placing second in the 100-yard butterfly (57.67), Edsall finished third in the 100 backstroke (59.56) and junior Aimee Hooper (Clifton Park, N.Y./Shenendehowa) claiming third in the 500 freestyle (5:01.25).
On the diving boards, Madison was paced by redshirt freshman Taryn McLaughlin (Hudson, Ohio/Hudson) placing second in both events. She scored a 249.40 on the one-meter board to trail only WVU's Haily Vandepoel (279.00). Vandepoel again claimed first on the three-meter board, scoring 321.30 points with McLaughlin in second with 264.50 points. Freshman Olivia Lehman (Dayton, Ohio/Centreville) was the second finisher for Madison on both boards placing fourth on the one-meter (222.95) and sixth on the three-meter (218.60).
JMU returns to action next weekend as they host their first home meet of the season. Delaware, UNCW and William & Mary all make the trip to Harrisonburg for the annual CAA Pod Meet at Savage Natatorium.
